The impact of climate change on the Russian arctic and paths to solving the problem
This illustrated and compact brochure presents data on the impact of climate change in the Russian Arctic. The text compiles scientific observations, witness accounts from local residents, and data on current and foreseen damage due to climate change. Alas, the situation in the Arctic is alarming, and the forecasts are discouraging. This fact must be presented in a clear and unambiguous form, and delivered to the leaders of the major world powers, as well as to UN diplomats, currently conducting negotiations towards future reduction of greenhouse gases. Climate change, however, cannot be halted immediately
